Definitely or as others have mentioned it might not really be relevant at all. Perhaps having to worry about the real threat of PEM causes that...
[MEDIA] This video seems to be a pretty good summary of the literature already out there. These are the kind of result the NIH should have tested...
This all begs the question: what should we ask the NIH to follow up on? And if there is nothing in the paper that warrants follow up study, what...
Thanks for taking the time to respond EndME. I think your points are very reasonable and help clarify the issue for me. As always so many...
I am genuinely curious why is a control group useful in such a study? To me it seems like the purpose of this paper was to figure out what...
That seems to be correct. They don't tell us what % of people had excessive orthostatic tachycardia at 40 minuets, and don't even specifically...
If someone naturally has to do things to prevent themselves from fainting in everyday life, I would argue they should not be a control in a ME/CFS...
Interesting, I assumed that a healthy person couldn't have such an increase in heart rate. It is also possible that these aren't false positives...
This seemed bizarre to me so I decided to do some digging. They don't include any of the tilt table data in the Supplementary Data and except in...
What do you mean by finding any differences? What are you comparing between the people did 1 CPET vs 2? The people who did the 1 day would still...
Its not quite that, its more like we aren't going to try and objectively measure PEM (for the reasons given) but instead going to measure lots of...
Upon further reflection, I think my biggest gripe with the paper (besides the small sample size and BPS influences) is it took so long to come out...
This may be an unpopular opinion but I understand why they used a 1-day CPET. It makes sense that by taking measurements when PEM is induced on...
Um isn't that like 4 times the legal limit for driving?
Wow 15 months for the paper to be published seems crazy.
I have been trying to figure out how DCE-MRI works and what is shows regarding BBB disfunction. They inject a contrast agent, in this case...
The vast majority of the people were not picked because they had an onset greater than 5 years ago, had no record of infection or had other...
Its not so much that my brain is somehow preventing me from pushing through. I can push through but I understand that comes at a cost. I generally...
This difference in performance correlated with decreased activity of the right temporal-parietal junction, a part of the brain that is focused on...
Some other information on recruitment that I found in Supplementary Data 2. There were 484 people that applied for the study. Of those, 137 were...
